Barb, I’m keeping up with the original lap size as well. I might go up in size once I see the setting.

Hello Barb or whomever- it may have been said, or maybe it isn't appropriate to ask. (I've never been in a mystery quilt before)
Has it been mentioned what kind of or how much background fabric we need? I love shopping and I feel like I should be preparing.

hav4boys - have you received my card yet? Lum got hers on the 21st and they were mailed together. Also, WMUTeach and I are rather close and I think use the same regional postal office, and I saw both hers made it to their birthday gals. Thanks.

Got back to our "home". Two weeks away with two teens, no news, no statistics on covid, has been a wonderful time. They leave on Tuesday and then i will play catch-up with the mystery.

Those are beautiful blocks! I like the dark blue background the best.

I agree with Jennr8r - the dark blue sets off the blocks so nicely!
